The cave he'd found was small, barely more than a little hole in the embankment just above the tide line, but it was enough for Kampfur. Three days he'd stayed by the ocean which had been very good to him, after his initial faux pas with some fish and a local girl.
Whether or not it was good for him to stay much longer was another story. Having a tribe so close by was a bit bothersome; he had more or less worked out their boundaries by now, but even so he didn't quite trust them not to suddenly expand or otherwise object to his presence on the periphery.
Kampfur twitched one ear, jerking himself back to the present as thunder boomed overhead. The rain hadn't started to fall yet, but it would soon...and though he was nearly certain his little cave would be out of the impending rise of water, he wasn't entirely certain.
A small difference, but one he should pay attention to. Still, with the water already rising and a long way to run to get up on the embankment itself, he was in no position to try and find higher grounds now.

Just about to return to his paw cleaning--Kamp was fastidious about his fur when he wasn't actively hunting--Kamp noticed a familiar, bright spot wandering down the beach.
"Don't," he muttered, though there was no way she could have heard him. He eyed the thunderclouds rapidly approaching over the horizon, a little alarmed the girl didn't seem to notice them, or how very stranded she was about to be.
Just as another thunderclap broke, she jumped and looked--at him.
"Of all the..."
He looked back at the dark, roiling sea and then to the girl, and then to the long, long stretch of beach between themselves and safety.
"There's a little path on the other side," he gestured to the opposite bit of his outcropping, where a tiny path had been worn upward from the shore. "Get up here before the storm hits!"
